hello everyone.
I am just trying to see what recovery was like for others. I'm currently going through radiotherapy, I've had 2 rounds already and my 3rd will be on Monday (because hospitals don't treat you at the weekend, apparently )
I've noticed I am getting irritated more, I am having mood swings galore, I'm snappy and on edge... all the time.
I mean, it's good that I'm noticing it but it's driving me up the wall. has anyone who's gone through radiotherapy had the same? and what have you done to help yourself? I'm worried incase I snap at someone at work or something and they take offence
